At the St. Francis weight loss clinic, our staff takes great pride in setting up our patients for success. Individuals sometimes come to us feeling stressed out and discouraged because they were much thinner several years ago, or because the standard BMI chart recommends a weight that simply seems unattainable. However, demanding unrealistic results is not the goal of the St. Francis program for weight loss. Rather, our goal is a healthy weight – along with overall good health and well-being – for each of our patients.

In addition to supervised weight loss, Dr. Averill is also experienced in allergy treatment and has completed a fellowship at the prestigious Johns Hopkins University, so he can help you identify and address a food allergy as well.
